I Am An Addict

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. You are helping me reach my goal of blogging full time goal by 2012 and I truly appreciate it! Feel free to check back in on my monthly progress updates. Thanks for visiting!

@Money Reasons, Host Monster offered to start a ticket to see if I could get moved to a different server, but I was just too frustrated with them at that point…

@First Gen, escape is actually good for the mind apparently. It allows you to de-stress subconciously. Don’t get burnt out, but I hope you know that your readers (at least me for sure) enjoy your thoughts and think you are very much a part of our “real world”.

[...] the end of February, I had a few commenters every day. BFS felt like my special world. I got addicted pretty quickly. I also decided that I finally found my dream job. That’s when I started [...]
